She is never happier than when she is able to offer a genuine solution or new perspective on a business problem and believes that listening, flexibility and a willingness to try something out of the ordinary are key to the strength and longevity of the relationships Watsons forges with its clients.
When she is not wearing one of these hats, she can be found brushing mud off her 34 year old gelding William, walking the 15 year old and now ‘obedient’ Finn, performing in a 60's, West Coast California covers band and generally appreciating the finer things in life – perhaps not to be expanded upon here!
